The debut of The World of David Morris, the major book release from the House of David Morris, offers a narrative of the House’s story like never seen before. Peppered with personal anecdotes, eclectic inspirations and – naturally – fabulous jewels, it is a perfect reflection of the House today : a proudly family-run company, very much focused on the now.

Inviting readers behind the scenes at the House’s London flagship, The World of David Morris is written by revered jewellery editor Annabel Davidson. Already well-versed in the House’s jewels, she has captured the David Morris brand with personality and soul, with the traditional formality of a coffee table book replaced by a warm, accessible tone that makes for very easy reading. A fascinating insight into how vision and innovation are the key to maintaining a thriving family jewellery dynasty, at its heart is Jeremy Morris, CEO and Creative Director of David Morris. The book showcases many different voices: sisters Cecily and Phoebe, the latest generation of the Morris family to follow in their father’s footsteps; the designers who work closely with Jeremy Morris in the studio at 180 New Bond Street; and the master craftspeople who have worked in the High Jewellery workshop on the top floor for over 30 years. The loudest voice by far is that of Jeremy himself. His evolution of the business since he took over in 2003 is succinctly captured within its pages, with many of the chapters narrated by the creative whirlwind. (Site de l'éditeur)
